This study is enrolling about 200 people in Bergen, Norway who have experienced a first suspected epileptic seizure. Researchers will follow participants for two years to understand how people are currently diagnosed and cared for after a first seizure, and to test whether advanced brain wave tests (EEG) with artificial intelligence can help doctors identify epilepsy more quickly and accurately.
Many people who experience a first seizure go through a long, stressful period of uncertainty before getting a clear diagnosis. Some people are initially told they don't have epilepsy, only to have seizures again later. This study aims to understand these diagnostic delays and test whether newer EEG technology with computer-assisted analysis can help doctors diagnose epilepsy faster and reduce confusion.

You will be followed for two years after your first suspected seizure. Researchers will collect information from your medical records about your diagnosis, any new seizures, and any new brain-related health issues. They will also access government health databases to track your care across hospitals and primary care clinics. If you are a child, the study will also track school absences. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and undergo standard brain wave tests (EEG) to help evaluate your condition.
